Jacobia aJakea Tiptree traded her power-broker life for a run-down dream house in peaceful Eastport, Maine. But the do-it-yourself enthusiast is learning that no matter how carefully you build your home, murder has a way of slipping in through the cracksab. Itas a bright June afternoon and old-house-fixer-upper Jake Tiptree is driving through downeast Maine on an unusual errand. Sheas getting ready to interview a large, angry man with a criminal history. Jim Diamond may or may not be harassing his ex-wife with life-threatening letters, but Jake promised her new housekeeper, Bella Diamond, shead look into the matter. An ex-con and a deadbeat, Jim Diamond doesnat have a history of violenceabthat is, not until Jake arrives at his apartment and discovers that a killer has been there first. Suddenly Jake and her best friend, Ellie White, find themselves at the center of a murder with too many suspects and too few clues. And as if thatas not enough, Jake is now saddled with the manic Bella, whose certainty that sheall be the next victim is fueling a supercompulsive neatnessaone that threatens to clean Jake and her long-suffering husband, Wade, out of house and home. Add to that a moose in her kitchen, a rebellious son with a habit of dumping Miss Right for Miss Wrong, and a troublesome ex of her own, and Jake is already at witas end. Then she gets word that a horde of her dadas long-lost relatives mean to descend on Eastport, intending to be put up at her far-from-fixed-up fixer-upper. When the killer does strike again, itas not where Jake expectsaband the victim couldnat be more of a surprise. For this is a case bigger than the usual angryaex-spouse variety, and now that Jake and Ellie have gotten themselves involved, theyave each won a special place in a ruthless murdereras master plan of greed, deception, and death.
